Criminal acts:

Those who have broken the law, but are not worthy of death, usually served prison time or menial labor until their sentence is served.

To pay off debts:

Those who have large amounts of debt but had no money to pay generally were able to pay off their debt through working for their debtor.

Prisoner of war:

Prisoners were a large source of potential slaves who can be used to help construct infrastructure within a nation. Examples can be found in Rome subduing many of the Barbaric tribes in the North.
